My deepest sympathies to you all. Aunt Jackie was always like a "second mom" to me. Her smile and caring were so infectious that she made the day better for anyone who knew her. She will be sorely missed.

I am sorry for your loss. You were blessed to have her. Aunt Jackie was one of the kindest, caring, and selfless person I know. I always enjoyed visiting with her and really appreciated her concern for my dad’s welfare over the years.❤️

We didn't personally know your mother but you shared so many thoughts about her that we realize she was a treasure to all of you. Prayers for you as you begin the new year with your mom in heaven.
